Fiscal Year 2008
Division Graduate School of Engineering & Applied Science
Department Meteorology
Investigator(s) Montgomery, Michael T.
Sponsor National Science Foundation (NSF)
Summary The proposed work pioneers a comprehensive synthesis of synoptic scale, mesoscale and cloud scale phenomena to determine how pre-typhoon/hurricane proto vortices are created and able to survive adverse environmental influences from dry air intrusion and/or vertical shear.
